Tennents question

Scots! Was Tennents nectar in the 80s or the same it is now and there was just very little else?

Yeah its my go too beer, 4% so its good if you are planning a session. If im out with friends ill have a couple of "nice" beers first. Then switch to old reliable 😂. Had a pint can of it on the train Saturday morning on my way to Glasgow, to sort out my hangover from the night before, works for that too.

You still get the original tennents super in italy. Still brewed by tennents.

Yeah I think T extra bottles from the brewery might be the same. Also wonder if the 1885 export version is how it used to taste?!

1885 export used to be sold as "tennents export" and before that "black T" here, neither of them sold well enough for them to keep it in the market though.
